Polyphony Digital has released a new version of their Gran Turismo 5 title, introducing a bunch of small improvements.
Perhaps most interestingly, the update introduces new sounds of the Honda Weider HSV-010 Super GT car. The sound update comes in the wake of rather controversial comments made by Kazunori Yamauchi about GT 5′s engine sounds.
Changelog
The [Tire/Fuel Consumption] settings under [Event Settings] of the Online Lounge can now be set in four levels; “None”, “Normal”, “Fast”, and “Very Fast”.
The view during 3D display has been improved.
The speed of tire wear varied too greatly depending on the vehicle in some cases, and this has been balanced.
Improved the scoring method in drift trials to prevent cheating
The maximum RPM of the Honda Weider HSV-010 (SUPER GT) ’11 has been changed to 10300rpm. The engine sound has also been improved.
Fixed an issue where enemy cars were hitting the pit entrance wall when pitting in at the Twin Ring Motegi Road Course East.
Fixed an issue where fuel was not being consumed when entering an endurance race with a Prius, or when setting tires and fuel to be consumed in the online lounge. Affected cars: Toyota Prius G ’02, Toyota Prius G ’09, Toyota Prius G Touring Selection ’03, Toyota Prius Touring Car.
Fixed an issue where the online control characteristics differed from the offline characteristics.
You can find a comparison video of the old & new sounds below, the new version can be downloaded by starting Gran Turismo 5 while the Playstation 3 is connected to the internet.
